Your skin breaks out. Stress is known to instigate a variety of skin ailments, ranging from acne and hives to rashes, Granstein says. Acne is caused in part by the stress hormone cortisol, which sends the skinâs oil-producing glands into overdrive.
Hornblende is a field and classroom name used for a group of dark-colored amphibole minerals found in many types of igneous and metamorphic rocks.These minerals vary in chemical composition but are all double-chain inosilicates with very similar physical properties.he mineral hornblende has very few uses. Its primary use might be as a mineral specimen. However, hornblende is the most abundant mineral in a rock known as amphibolite which has a large number of uses. It is crushed and used for highway construction and as railroad ballast. It is cut for use as dimension stone.
The major dark colored minerals in a typical igneous rock will be biotite, hornblende, augite, and/or olivine: Biotite is easy because it forms perfect shiny black cleavages and can be peeled into flakes. It can be confused with hornblene, but hornblende does not flake. Hornblende and augite are often confused. Most reliable is cleavage: hornblende forms ~120Â°/60Â° cleavages whereas augite forms ~90Â° cleavages. In addition, hornblende tends to form very black and shiny cleavages, whereas augite forms duller black and not-very-reflective cleavages. Finally, hornblende tends to form long rectangular crystals whereas augite forms blocky crystals. Olivine is a glassy olive green and tends to form rounded, lumpy crystals.
